I Will Soon Be Bankrupt
These clearly delicious little gems are gobbled up by seemingly the entire population of all species of garden birds residing in the South of Wiltshire !
Why, even my local woodpigeon attempted to hang on the feeder for his share. An entire family of Greater Spotted Woddpeckers come daily and I feel quite honoured.

Sunflower hearts have to be one of the best value pure bird foods I have ever bought, probably only matched in popularity by peanut granules and mealworms in our garden. I feed them from an ordinary hanging feeder and also ensure a good supply is available in both a ground feeder and directly on the lawn.
Sunflower hearts are Sunflower seeds with the outer husk removed, which makes it easier for the birds to eat them and also results in significantly less waste on the ground around the feeders. You may not notice the difference if your feeder is over grass but it'll be huge if over a patio.
